To me though, she has a more realistic human look as opposed to some impossibly beautiful actress. (Not that I mind looking at those either.)

I understand, I just don’t care for her or her music. All the costuming and bs, just sing. That’s what Adele does. I don’t like her music either but I respect her. I’m sure this movie will make money. Everyone will cream their pants that Gaga is in a movie. I just won’t be seeing it even though I like Cooper. I’ll watch it on satellite when it gets there.

Do you know what this means? It means I am a member of a gang, only we have badges, which means you are done.

She tried to break into the music business as Stephanie Germania and it didn’t work. So she created a persona that did. The woman can sing. Just like Adele. Gaga adapted to her environment, and found a way to be wildly successful. Even if I don’t dig on her music (or politics) no one can deny her voice.. I like the genuine, just her, look. And I agree with the character in the film....I think she is pretty. She has become less about the wild make up look as she has gotten older, and apparently has fibromyalgia (a whole different conversation).

I will see it. The woman has a voice like few others. And I like Cooper.

Saw it last night. The girlfriend is a Gaga fan and she “encouraged” me to take her. I must say I enjoyed it. The music was great. I think Bradley Cooper definitely has a future as a director. While the broad strokes are the same as the originals and previous remakes it definitely deviates. The soundtrack is available on multiple streaming platforms and the rock and country stuff is very good. Willie Nelson’s kid had a hand in the music writing.
